Classical Mechanics Level 2

What can be the maximum displacement of a particle performing circular motion?

Note : - the particle is only performing circular motion and radius of its is r r

2 r 2 r π r \pi r Can't be determined 2 π r 2\pi r

since diameter is longest chord .so maximum displacement will be 2r.

The furthest you can be from your starting position is the opposite side of the circle, which is one diameter away from the start. One diameter is twice the radius, so our answer is 2 r \boxed{2r} .
